A Mamba and heroin user burgled a house - but was rumbled when a neighbour recognised him.

McKenzie Randall, 20, was spotted by a woman whose sister went to school with him, Nottingham Crown Court heard.

He was trying to get into a house in Gladstone Street, Mansfield, after 4pm on November 5.

But the neighbour called police when she saw him outside and heard a noise as though a door was being kicked in.

Edie Leonard, prosecuting, said during the hearing on Tuesday (November 28): "She then saw him attempting to pull himself up to the window. He was half in and half out for about five minutes. He got himself inside for about ten seconds and got back out again."
